whenever i am feeling low i come to this forum - and it has always provided me relief.
Of late i feel all messed up, my mind , my life seems all messed up - i have realised that all it takes is one incident , one mistake, one moment of passion to mess you up. It is really true that when
Maya (Lust & Greed) , even in a subtle form , entice you , all spiritual practices go down.
its like I am drowning in the sea of delusion, and unfortuanately i am enjoying it (the drowning). It is only when we experience heart break in the world that we remember Mother.
And yet what is so reassuring is that she is always there, despite all our flaws and failings She is always there.
Please dont ever leave us Mother, always guide us Your children , or else we are doomed.
You have shared with us your pain and all of us go through these feelings and yet I would keep reminding you of our relationship with the Mother. IT IS ETERNAL. Nothing you or I or anyone will do will result in any form of abandonment. Remember that always.
Once a son came to Mother telling her how difficult it has been for him to stay pure. She looked at him and then told him" Whenever any bad thought comes to your mind just say to yourself I have a Mother" I will try to get the correct quote but the main point is that Mother herself has reassured all her children about her willingness and duty to take care of her children. You are Her child, so why should you fear, even if we play in the dirt and mud and are stained, She will lift us in her arms, bless us and send us on our way to do what we are here to do. Her work.
Mother is there always with Her children, and where her children come and gather in her name like here in this courtyard She pays special attention. She hears each sigh that escapes from our lips, all we need to say is
"I have a Mother"
